Bring Value

Add Value to Your World! Go and make something worthwhile happen, and yes, smiling counts. You can't expect to create change while bringing greed, drama, selfishness, excuses, and pity to the party. These are the things that we must be mindful of, so that we may avoid them as much as possible.

Make your world better, then share with others. Be more loving, happier, simpler, more truthful, gentle, compassionate, and caring. Take yourself out of the picture for a while and think of how may you serve and help a planet that is in desperate need of kindness in every way.

"Let us cultivate love and compassion, both of which give life true meaning. This is the religion I preach. It is simple. Its temple is the heart. Its teaching is love and compassion. Its moral values are loving and respecting others, whoever they may be. Whether one is a lay person or a monastic, we have no other option if we wish to survive in this world." - Dalai Lama


Now is When. Shine on.

Love & Many Blessings,

How Do You Define Value?

Oh, so many buzzwords! We could get lost in them and never really know what any of them mean. The one I hear constantly is VALUE. What is value? How do you define value?

What I do understand about Value now is that you must have Integrity. You cannot possibly expect to provide anything worthwhile to anyone until you are right yourself. Until you understand that whatever you are supplying is nothing but an extension of your inner self.

It's about differentiating yourself from the rest, and the easiest way to do that, is to be you. Strive to improve in every area and the results will inevitably spread to other parts of your life. That includes your clients. The more you know, the better off you are. Invest in yourself.  It'll always pay off handsomely.

But it doesn't end there. You must give. Give. Give. Give. Much more than you believe it's worth. Go out of your way. Go above and beyond. Why is it that you are doing what you are doing anyways? Is it for money? Or because you LOVE what you do? I believe that if you are truly living your passion, then being of service is, or should be, your number one priority.

Think about infomercials (I know - just stick with me).  They make an offer. Then throw in something else. Then reduce the value. Then throw in free shipping! Why do so many people go for it? Because they feel the offer is unbeatable. They believe they are getting way more than the $19.95 they are paying. Clients should feel that way about you too.

Go out there and be your valuable self!

You are unbeatable...
